STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
some 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

ATG40Autophagy-related protein 40; Autophagy receptor with a role in endoplasmic reticulum degradation; involved specifically in autophagy of cortical and cytoplasmic ER in response to nitrogen starvation or rapamycin treatment; localizes to the cortical and cytoplasmic ER; similar to human FAM134B, which is also involved in ER autophagy and is associated with sensory neuropathy (256 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ATG8
Autophagy-related protein 8; Component of autophagosomes and Cvt vesicles; regulator of Atg1p, targets it to autophagosomes; binds the Atg1p-Atg13p complex, triggering its vacuolar degradation; unique ubiquitin-like protein whose conjugation target is lipid phosphatidylethanolamine (PE); Atg8p-PE is anchored to membranes, is involved in phagophore expansion, and may mediate membrane fusion during autophagosome formation; deconjugation of Atg8p-PE is required for efficient autophagosome biogenesis
   
 
 0.974
ATG39
Autophagy-related protein 39; Autophagy receptor with a role in degradation of the ER and nucleus; involved specifically in autophagy of perinuclear endoplasmic reticulum in response to nitrogen starvation or rapamycin treatment; localizes to the perinuclear ER
   
 
 0.964
ATG11
Autophagy-related protein 11; Adapter protein for pexophagy and the Cvt targeting pathway; directs receptor-bound cargo to the phagophore assembly site (PAS) for packaging into vesicles; required for recruiting other proteins to the PAS; recruits Dnm1p to facilitate fission of mitochondria that are destined for removal by mitophagy; Belongs to the ATG11 family
    
 
 0.858
ATG36
Autophagy-related protein 36; Pex3p interacting protein, required for pexophagy; interacts with Atg8p and Atg11p; mRNA is weakly cell cycle regulated, peaking in G2 phase; YJL185C is a non-essential gene
      
 0.850
ATG34
Autophagy-related protein 34; Receptor protein involved in selective autophagy during starvation; specifically involved in the transport of cargo protein alpha-mannosidase (Ams1p); Atg19p paralog
   
  
 0.828
SEC62
Translocation protein SEC62; Essential subunit of Sec63 complex; with Sec61 complex, Kar2p/BiP and Lhs1p forms a channel competent for SRP-dependent and post-translational SRP-independent protein targeting and import into the ER; cotranslationally N-acetylated by NatA; other members are Sec63p, Sec66p, and Sec72p
      
 0.777
ATG32
Autophagy-related protein 32; Mitochondrial outer membrane protein required to initiate mitophagy; recruits the autophagy adaptor protein Atg11p and the ubiquitin-like protein Atg8p to the mitochondrial surface to initiate mitophagy, the selective vacuolar degradation of mitochondria in response to starvation; can promote pexophagy when placed ectopically in the peroxisomal membrane; regulates mitophagy and ethanol production during alcoholic fermentation
      
 0.776
ATG19
Autophagy-related protein 19; Receptor protein for the cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting (Cvt) pathway; delivers cargo proteins aminopeptidase I (Ape1p) and alpha-mannosidase (Ams1p) to the phagophore assembly site for packaging into Cvt vesicles; interaction with Atg19p during the Cvt pathway requires phosphorylation by Hrr25p
      
 0.760
ATG41
Autophagy-related protein 41; Protein of unknown function; required for selective and nonselective autophagy, and mitophagy; regulates the rate of autophagosome formation; interacts with Atg9p, and has a similar peri-mitochondrial localization; elevated Gcn4p-dependent expression under autophagy-inducing conditions; mobilized into polysomes upon a shift from a fermentable to nonfermentable carbon source; potential Cdc28p substrate; ATG41 has a paralog, ICY1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
    
 
 0.714
ATG31
Autophagy-related protein 31; Autophagy-specific protein required for autophagosome formation; forms a complex with Atg17p and Atg29p that localizes other proteins to the pre-autophagosomal structure; constitutively phosphorylated, and phosphorylation of residue S174 is required for function; high-copy suppressor of CIK1 deletion
